Overview

Built around the moment
that matters.

Engineering contributions to SonyLIV, a streaming platform with over 100 million downloads — playback, discovery surfaces, premium upsell and multi-language catalogues.

Streaming engineering for SonyLIV — playback, discovery and premium journeys at scale.

The story.
From problem to product.

The challenge

What made it hard.

Playback quality and start times had to hold across a huge device spread and unstable networks, while discovery surfaces changed daily.

The response

How the product answered.

We worked inside the native iOS and Android clients on adaptive playback, merchandised discovery rails and subscription journeys, instrumented end to end.
